“Some of them can improve physical appearance.”
Facial masks are one of the best ways to hydrate and improve the appearance of the skin. Many of the dermatological products are usually quite expensive, however, there are some foods that when applied directly to the skin can have quite good effects, without having to spend large amounts of money.
The web portal ‘Mejor con Salud’ revealed some of the best homemade masks, which can help improve the appearance of the skin, making it look hydrated and smooth.
Yogurt mask
Yogurt has antibacterial properties that are ideal for treating acne skin. In addition, the lactic acid and zinc contained in this food help to relieve irritation or sunburn.
If you are going to make this mask, it is recommended to use unsweetened, flavorless yogurt that has not been pasteurized. This ingredient can also be mixed with honey, which helps moisturize and brighten the skin. It should be applied to a clean face and left to act for 20 minutes. Afterwards, you can remove it with lukewarm or cold water.
Avocado face mask
This fruit contains a large amount of vitamins and minerals such as: vitamin A, which is useful for the treatment of acne, psoriasis and sunburn; Vitamin C that improves the texture of the face and gives it luminosity; Vitamin D and B6 that help reduce wrinkles and expression lines.
To make this mask, a ripe avocado must be crushed until a paste is formed. This should be applied to a clean face, allowed to rest for 10 minutes and then removed with cold or lukewarm water.
Oatmeal mask with honey
Honey has enzymes that have a cleansing action, which is very important to eliminate toxins. In addition, it contains fructose, glucose and alpha-hydroxy acids that exfoliate the skin and revitalize it.
